[Intro: Piano Groove]
(Yeah... uh-huh)
(It's time to step out of the dark)
(No more hiding)
[Verse 1: R&B Vocals]
I spent too long trying to fit into a hidden space (Too long)
Trading pieces of my soul just to see a fleeting face
No more playing a script I never asked to own
I was never a seductress, just a heart looking for home
Washing off the dust of the secrets you kept (Wash it away)
While the truth of my worth finally woke up and stepped!
[Pre-Chorus: Bass Build]
No more performing just to get what I need (No more)
No more watering a love that’s a hollow seed... (Let it go)
[Beat Drop]
[Chorus: Explosive Belt]
'Cause I am not a shadow to hide in the dark! (Not a shadow!)
I’m a fire that’s burning, a beautiful spark! (Burning bright!)
I’m stepping out of the rearview, leaving ghosts behind
Driving toward a steady love, the kind that's clear and kind
Yeah, I’m choosing the light! (Choosing the light!)
No more hiding in plain sight!
[Verse 2: Warm Groove]
It don't matter the miles, it don't matter the drive
When somebody meets you and makes you feel alive (Feel alive)
You don’t judge my wreckage, you don't turn away
You’re just standing right there, quiet and steady every day
We’ve got similar roots, we know how it feels to survive
And the ground beneath my feet is finally starting to thrive!
[Chorus: Full Production]
'Cause I am not a shadow to hide in the dark!
I’m a fire that’s burning, a beautiful spark!
I’m stepping out of the rearview, leaving ghosts behind
Driving toward a steady love, the kind that's clear and kind
Yeah, I’m choosing the light! (Choosing the light!)
[Bridge: Climax Build]
It’s a brand new shift, a beautiful turn (A beautiful turn)
Taking the strength from the bridges I had to burn
Yeah, watch them burn down to the ground! (Let 'em burn!)
[Guitar Solo: Soulful R&B]
(Yeah! Oh-oh...)
[Chorus: Maximum Energy]
'Cause I am not a shadow to hide in the dark! (Never again!)
I’m a fire that’s burning, a beautiful spark! (Burning bright!)
I’m stepping out of the rearview, leaving ghosts behind
Yeah, I’m choosing the light! (Choosing the light, yeah!)
[Outro: Smooth Fade]
Heading toward the steady ground (Steady ground)
No more whispers, no more looking around
Just the open road ahead
Just the light... (Just the light)
Yeah, choosing the light...
[Fade Out]
